The present paper presents a facile and low-cost hydrothermal method to synthesize stoichiometric FeNi3 alloy nanoparticles by reducing Ni(NO3)2.6H(2)O and Fe(NO3)2.9H(2)O with hydrazine hydrate in strong alkaline media. X-ray diffraction patterns of as-prepared samples synthesized at 180 degrees C for different hydrothermal reaction times reveal that the products are pure stoichiometric FeNi3 ...

this study aimed to identify barriers of hydrothermal fish business in golestan province. study was a descriptive survey. t he statistical population of the study consisted of all 147 aquaculture hydrothermal fish growers and all of them were selected using census method. information was gathered through a questionnaire which its face validity was confirmed by experts of agricultural extension ...

Variations in the Mg, Ca, Sr, and SO4 concentrations of paleoseawater can affect the chemical exchange between seawater and oceanic basalt in hydrothermal systems at midocean ridges (MOR). We present a model for evaluating the nature and magnitude of these previously unappreciated effects, using available estimates of paleoseawater composition over Phanerozoic time as inputs and 87Sr/86Sr of op...

The utilization of renewable energy resources is desirable owing to several issues, including the depletion of petroleum resources and global warming1). Among many kinds of renewable resources, marine biomass (macroalgae) could be a promising feedstock for bioproduct and biofuel production2),3). However, appropriate pretreatment is needed prior to its effective utilization. Owing to the high wa...

The magmatic-hydrothermal evolution of porphyry-style mineralization in the shallow crust that is linked to magmatic processes at depth has been extensively studied using bulksample isotopic analysis combined with relative timing constraints. However, a lack of evaluation of the fluid evolution process against an absolute time frame limits further understanding of the ore-forming process. Here,...

Pretreatment of corn stover in 0.5% sulfuric acid at 160 °C for 40 min realized a maximum monomeric plus oligomeric xylose yield of 93.1% compared to a maximum of only 71.5% for hydrothermal (no added mineral acid) pretreatment at 180 °C for 30 min. To explain differences in dilute acid and hydrothermal yields, a fast reacting xylan fraction (0.0889) was assumed to be able to directly form mono...

Thispaper presents a deterministic model, which takes into account the final water storage and the effects of water head, for optimal short term generation scheduling of a hydrothermal system. Considering its large scale mixed integer nonlinear structure, a hybrid algorithm based on Genetic Algorithm and tabu search is developed to solve it. The model is divided into thermal power dispatch and ...
